ANSWERS: 21
  • Depends on the people involved.
  • Are you 15 or 55?
  • Well if you were 15 and he was 30... Then i would say yes. But if you really love each other, then what does age matter?
  • Not if you're MaryLou Whitney!
  • It poses issues that don't come up in a relationship with a smaller age gap, definitely... but if you're committed and love each other then age doesn't have to matter. It really does depend on the individuals involved.
  • Not if the youngest of the two is at least old enough to know about things in life, say...28?
  • It depends upon the maturity level of the younger person.
  • I think it depends... I mean I am 18 and I cannot not picture myself in a realationship with someone who is 33, but I am not against others doing it... and if i was truly in love then age does not matter typically for me I will not date anyone younger then me and to 5 years older then me which i figure is not to old to have major differences but i think it all depends on attraction
  • Depends on the type of relationship and the particular people in the relationship. Part of it is what each expects to get out of the relatioship. I have some good relationships with other ABers and I kow for a fact that I'm much more than 15 years older than some of them. we joke aroung, lean on each others shoulders, console each other, be there as a friend and generally relieve a lot of their stress. And, somethimes we even give and get some valuable advice. Any other relationship, don't know. But lots are valuabe to both parties.
  • It depends on two things: The age and maturity of the youngest person in the relationship. Younger, less mature people are NOT as prepared for or capable of having a serious & meaningful relationship in general, much less one with such an age difference. I will leave it at this and let you think about exact ages and maturity levels. Those change some, depending on the individuals and circumstances involved.
  • i think it all dependes in the persons involved. If one of them is a very young man or woman it would probably become problematic as time goes on. But, if both persons involve has a degree of maturity, the age should not be a problem.
  • It really depends on the age of the younger of the two. For example 15 & 30 is WAY wrong, while 35 & 50 is about when it starts being accepted by all. However, as in all relationships, it depends on the maturity, health, and relationship expectations of both parties.
  • My husband is 21 years younger than me. We have so far been married 33 months. We are very, very happy.
  • I'm not quite sure how people in that different of an age group could possibly relate to one another for very long.
  • Only if there's a significant difference in emotional maturity, but that's an issue all relationships have to contend with.
  • My aunt was 15 years younger than my uncle - they celebrated their Golden Wedding not long before he died aged 85; so yes it can lsat. BUT the younger person has to expect that their partner will probably die first and that they may have many years without them after that. My aunt realised only after his death that her husband had made her "old before her time" and that she had missed out on doing stuff that he had done in those 15 years that she sort of missed by marrying him. They were a devoted couple but this made her blind to what she now feels she missed out on.
  • half your age plus seven is the youngest you should date So, if you're 24, 12+7=19 if you're 50, 25+7=32 And so on and so forth
  • It is only a problem if you let it be, or if one of you is underage.
  • i dont think so depends totally on your understanding
  • It depends on the 2 people in the relationship
  • If one of the partners is under the age of 30 yes. If they are both over 30 then I'd say no.
